Levelland School Board reconsidering location of new stadium

LEVELLAND, TX (KCBD) - The Levelland School Board may have to consider another location for their new football stadium.

The district was looking to build on the site of their current field, but, architects say that may not be possible.

Superintendent Kelly Baggett says a new survey shows the current field sits on a 100-year flood plain.

That means the potential for flooding is very high.

Builders have recommended the district move the new stadium to another site.

The school board will take up the issue next Thursday.

Baggett says a possible location could be near the new middle school on the northeast side of town.
